oh, yeah...another one I've had in my Caedes Wannabes file since about May...it's hot and humid and hazy at the moment so I'm combing the archives for posts..it was originally called "Beckoning the Bees" ...I hope you enjoy the freshness they presented to me on that fine spring day :)

Very nice. I'll bet the bees would be appreciative as well. great color on the petals also, nice and subtle, drawing the eye (and bees)to the center of the flowers.

Terrific shot! I love how you can see the purple lines in the crocuses, just adds that little bit more depth of colour. I have a love/hate relationship with spring but this photo reminds of what I love about it. Thanks for sharing!

Hey PJ,
I sure do enjoy the freshness of a beautiful spring morning,
The flowers are gorgeous and the colors are wonderful,
I like the tight crop, makes us look more into the image instead of looking at an overview, (~8
Nicely done,

Thanks for sharing
